Villa management in Lucca.
The comune of Lucca runs from the walled city across the plain of the Serchio to the hills of Sant'Alessio, Mutigliano, Brancoli and Santa Maria del Giudice. Our villa here is Triano, a hilltop farmhouse for ten guests about 15 minutes from the centre.

For owners
Running a villa in Lucca.
Lucca is calmer than Florence or Siena, the Versilia beaches are 30 to 40 minutes away and Pisa airport is just as close. Guests here often split the week between the town, the sea and the pool, and they plan it before they arrive.
The tourist tax
€3.50 per person per night in holiday rentals since April 2025, up from €2.50, for up to 3 nights in a row. Children under 14 do not pay. The rate is the same inside and outside the walls.
Airbnb collects it here
For bookings made on Airbnb, Airbnb collects the tax and pays it to the comune. For direct bookings and other sites the host collects it, and the quarterly return is due by 15 April, July, October and January, even with no guests.
Registering the let
Before the first guest, a let that is not run as a business has to be reported to the comune through the regional STAR portal, and the house needs its CIN. Fines run from €500 to €3,000.
What we can do for you
Full management
We rent the house and run it: bookings and prices, guests, cleaning and linen, maintenance, pool and garden, the Italian tax and paperwork. You get a report and a payment every month.
How management works →If it stays emptyHome Watch
For a house that stays closed. We visit on a schedule, send a photo report after every visit and call you within 24 hours if something is wrong.
Build a free quote →How we run it
We run Triano from our office in Torrita di Siena.
Cleaning, laundry, pool and garden are done by local people we know, and every visit ends with a photo report. Spending above the agreed amount waits for your approval.
The first step is a free evaluation of your house. It costs nothing and does not commit you to anything.

The area
What to do around Lucca.
Lucca is still inside its 16th and 17th-century walls, more than 4 km round, with a tree-lined path on top. In the hills outside them are the country villas that Lucca's merchant families built from the 16th century onwards.
Lucca and its walls
Walk or cycle the whole circuit of the walls, then go down into the old town: the oval Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, the Guinigi tower with holm oaks growing on top, and the house where Giacomo Puccini was born.
Villas and gardens
Some of the old merchant villas open their gardens to visitors, among them Villa Reale di Marlia and Villa Torrigiani at Camigliano. Check the opening times before you go.
Montecarlo and Collodi
Montecarlo is a small walled village with its own DOC wine. Collodi, just over the border in the province of Pistoia, has the Garzoni garden and the Pinocchio park.
The sea and Puccini's lake
The Versilia beaches are 30 to 40 minutes from Triano. On Lake Massaciuccoli, Torre del Lago holds an open-air Puccini festival every summer.
At the table
Tordelli lucchesi, a meat-filled pasta served with ragù. Farro soup from the Garfagnana. Buccellato, Lucca's sweet bread with raisins and aniseed. Olive oil from these hills, which has its own DOP, and the local wines of the Colline Lucchesi and Montecarlo.
Getting here
Pisa airport is 30 to 40 minutes from Triano and Florence airport about an hour. Lucca station has trains to Pisa, Florence and Viareggio. You need a car in the hills.
